episode_0557
by fnovelpiaI told the news to my wives.
Isabel, Edeline, and Anne had no problems.
Edeline has completely completed the handover of her affairs, and Isabelle only needs to ask Edward to become regent.
But Shir and Lexi were different.
“A leader cannot leave the country vacant for half a year.”
[What does that matter? They will take care of it themselves.]
[I told you this before. It was all for you.]
The wind around me hums as if conveying my emotions.
It was natural for them to be angry.
However, ‘taming’ comes with obligations.
Even if it is a country or organization.
“It may not be that dangerous.”
[How can you guarantee that?]
“Or, do you have a trustworthy agent or regent?”
There was no answer to the question.
This is unavoidable─ [Master.]
‘Julias?’
I thought it was plausible, but it turned out to be nonsense.
“Did you tell Julias?”
[no.]
It’s not that I don’t trust Julia.
However, he was as sly as his appearance.
“Did you at least say something and make a suggestion?”
[I’ll ask and come back.]
The wind calms down.
‘No matter how dangerous it is…’
“I was always curious.”
A thick voice catches attention.
Shipbuilding director. He was looking down at me from the boat above Chosundae.
“How could you speak the language of an ogre.”
“Aren’t all the languages of the world similar?”
“Wrong. Because our oral structures are different.”
Pangea is the land that is all connected.
As a result, there are similarities in language.
Except for the ‘independent’ Ain.
“You were a saint. ···I thought so.”
The shipyard manager was on board the ship, taking care of his bedding and fishing rod.
“What is the shipbuilding manager’s name?”
“Gaul.”
“Can I call you Gaul?”
“Call me the shipyard manager.”
“But, can you handle such a big ship by yourself?”
“It may be a sailboat to you, but to me it is no different from a sailboat.”
He fiddles with the helm here and there, then glances up at the sails.
And then, isn’t the rope attached to the sail pulled by hand?
─But now I’m going back.
The sail is broken with a rope, not with a wheel.
“Are you married?”
“Yes.”
“That monster-like woman back then?”
“There are six of them, and they are all monsters.”
The shipyard manager suddenly turns his head and looks at me.
He looked very surprised. But even for a moment.
He smiled and looked at me.
“···A six-woman voyage for half a year. It’s going to be a painful time.”
“Why?”
“What will you do during this boring time of half a year?”
“······Well?”
“It would be good to listen carefully. People can never forget what happened when they were having a hard time.”
I’ve heard of it.
Men cannot forget their military service, and women cannot forget when they were pregnant.
“The journey is difficult and eats away at people’s hearts. If you get into a passionate fight while sailing, it will be a topic of conversation for the rest of your life.”
“You speak as if you have experienced it?”
“I’ve experienced it. Thanks to you, my wife took the child and left.”
It was a ridiculous sound.
However, they are independent humans, different from humans.
In a way, it’s even more amazing that Ogre has started a family.
“I have to be careful not to do that.”
“In particular, the biggest problem is water. The salt carried by the wind will make your body sticky, but you can’t even imagine washing it.”
Fortunately, I have a miracle.
‘I was wondering why the kettle with water coming out was so amazing.’
Everything seems to be relative.
“Is there anything else?”
“I’ve never gone on a long voyage, but it would be a good idea to pack plenty of spices and entertainment.”
“Doesn’t Auger eat vegetables?”
“Quuk! Vegetables for an ogre.”
Do you need vegetables or not?
This was a very important thing.
Scurvy is a disease that comes from not eating vegetables for several months.
After thinking about it, I tried to get lucky.
“If you hunted a plump deer, where would you start eating?”
“Built-in.”
‘I need it.’
Animals that eat their internal organs first need vegetables.
Water is infinite anyway.
I tended a small garden on the boat, and there was enough food for eight people—I glanced at the shipyard manager.
‘That thing weighs in tons.’
I have all kinds of worries.
“Seth, do you know how to make nutritional supplements?”
“Nutrients? Suddenly why?”
“The shipyard director needs nutritional supplements. It would be nice if you could make something for us to eat.”
“You can make it.”
In that case, there would be no need to grow a garden on a boat.
Of course, even if that were the case, the ship would not be light.
Because it has to be filled with goods to trade with many people.
“Oh, our people will also take three.”
“Why?”
“Because we need to investigate the external demon case.”
“Yes. That’s right.”
There are more strangers on the boat.
However, you cannot refuse a request from a financial supplier.
“Then, would you like to go shopping with me while I get ready?”
* * * * * *
Moving a ship from the dock to the launch requires the cooperation of numerous people.
But the shipyard manager did it all by himself.
─Splash!
” Being friends with Ogeo, Sihyeon has a strange but wide network.”
“The world is small.”
I quietly approached Edeline.
“Is Rohan okay?”
“Yes. He said he would take care of it at the Magic Tower until I return.”
─Hey! As expected, our shipyard director!
─They say you need to know one thing: strength.
Loud cheering steals my attention.
The shipyard manager was driving the ship into the port as easily as if he were driving a dinghy yacht.
‘Giants and dwarves on sailboats.’
I think it will be a very enjoyable trip.
I took a quick look at the ladies.
However, Seth and Edeline’s expressions were not so bright.
It felt as if I was afraid.
“What’s wrong?”
“···My power was suppressed.”
Seth looks at the steamer with a nervous expression.
“Once we get up there, from then on we are ordinary people.”
“It will be a pretty good experience, right?”
“What is good? When I think about the past, I can only sigh.”
A perfect person’s head turns upside down.
So there are times when you have to let go of your power once or twice.
Lexi was silently looking up at the boat.
As if it were a war of nerves. The same was true for Sur and Anne.
I slowly approached Lexi.
“Why are you aiming for the boat like that?”
“···I feel like my power is weakening as that ship approaches.”
‘Is your strength weakening?’
I looked at Sur and Anne.
Shir, who was physically perfect, seemed very unfamiliar with the feeling of helplessness in his body.
Anne’s skin was already turning red from the hot sunlight on the beach.
I slowly approached Isabelle.
“Ella, what did you do?”
“What do I do?”
“Isn’t the power seal the power of Dantalian?”
“Strictly speaking, it is not our power, but a power borrowed from a servant.”
The women’s pupils lose focus at Isabel’s words.
In his mind, he is talking to his servants.
But wait for a while.
Shir opens his eyes and looks at me.
“···Venus says he can’t help you?”
“···Mercurius says the same thing.”
Lexi also looks at me with stern eyes.
‘Not all servants lend us their strength?’
This is absurd.
When did I tell you to go, and why are you saying this again now?
A ship docks in the port.
I quickly boarded the ship, took out my shingi, and tilted it.
Squeak ───
Fortunately, despite the misfortune, water comes out without fail.
The women looked at me with uncomfortable looks, but eventually their stomachs began to burn.
“Why do you throw away precious water?”
“This is a magic gift I received from Neptune. Water flows endlessly.”
‘Will language translation be maintained?’
Whose side is Dantalian on?
I glanced at the shipyard director.
There was admiration in his eyes as he looked at Shingi.
‘If you go to the Demon World, you won’t need these shoes.’
“When you return, I will give you a boat.”
“···What?”
“Isn’t this item more suitable for a sailor than me? The shipyard director is the person who will become the owner of this ship.”
It was originally given to me to cross the desert.
‘But soon the desert of Pangea will disappear.’
In that case, it is right to give it to the person who will cross the desert above the sea.
I roughly threw away my shoes and followed the workers to carry the luggage.
Sweat soon began to flow from my body.
‘Have you washed your hands here too?’
There is still a lot of luggage left.
The women also started moving the luggage, but everyone was very slow because their bodies had returned to their old days.
The shipyard manager picks up the remaining luggage and brings it back to the ship.
It weighs in tons.
However, it appeared to be lifting a small fruit box.
I wondered if the box was empty.
thud!
When I heard it, it didn’t seem like it.
The remaining Dragonias next to the luggage were looking at the shipyard manager with frightened faces.
In a way, it was natural.
Once you get here, you will have to live in the same boat as Ogre, an ‘independent’ demi-human, for nearly half a year.
─And that too without the protection of authority.
They weren’t the only ones in fear.
Everyone was glancing around and looking at the shipyard manager.
“Wow, you have great strength.”
“Nothing special.”
Workers gradually move the remaining luggage into the cargo hold.
After everything was sorted out.
The workers passed by, tapping the shipyard manager’s legs with their hands.
“See you in half a year.”
“Damn, I wanted to ride it too.”
Among them were goblins and servotaurs.
And the place they left.
There are still three dragonias standing on the dockside.
The shipyard manager glances at them and then looks at me.
“What about them?”
“···I just came out to meet you.”
We cannot take those who are consumed by fear.
Carnivores consider animals weaker than themselves as prey.
In other words, it can stimulate the ogre’s desire to prey.
This is the case in most cases where a person is eaten or injured by a large carnivore that they are raising.
‘Of course, this person can’t do that.’
Large pets do not hurt their owners because they want to hurt them.
It’s a mistake.
I waved at the scared people.
“Thank you for your hard work coming to meet me.”
“Hey! Don’t you guys ride?!”
Seth opens his eyes wide and leans against his stomach, glaring at the Dragonias.
In the end, they were unable to make eye contact with Dragonia.
I don’t know what that means, but I understand the look in his eyes.
But the shipyard director looked at me with a wide smile.
“Then, can we leave?”
“Yes. You can go.”
The shipyard foreman lifts the anchor and straightens the sails.
With that alone, the ship obediently began heading towards the horizon.
The women looked at us from a distance, clearly frightened.
The only one who doesn’t know Jules is Isabel.
“Your wives seem to be afraid of me.”
“Isn’t it bigger than yourself? In a way, it’s natural.”
“···I see.”
I glanced up at the shipyard director.
It looked very lonely.
“Isn’t that what people are like? The person standing on top looks big, and the person below looks small.”
“I don’t look small.”
Since he doesn’t look down on other subhumans, he doesn’t want others to look down on him either.
But that’s wrong.
Because no one can see into another person’s heart.
“Of course it should be.”
The shipyard manager quickly turns his head and glares at me.
It seems that it was his vice.
“There is something like this among human speech. Short people can make fun of tall people, but tall people should not make fun of short people.”
“What? What does that mean?”
“You understand? In the end, it is said that the big guy was good and the small guy was bad.”
Angry eyes soften.
Eventually, the shipyard manager snorted and shook his head.
“Hmph, you sound like my father.”
“I remember. My father was a very wise man.”
“Okay. That’s right.”
“Do you remember the oxygen you raised? Now, oxygen is grown throughout the United Kingdom.”
The corners of the shipyard director’s mouth rose, and perfume filled his eyes.
It means that all the oxygen he raised may have died, but the stem was not broken.
“Those people are both scared and curious.”
“It looks like that.”
“If something unpleasant happens that is difficult to tolerate, please call me.”
“Okay.”
Now, it’s time to unpack.
“Is there anything I can help you with?”
“No.”
“If you have any, please call me anytime.”
I tapped his leg with my palm like a worker would.
The board skin was so hard that it hurt my hands, but the shipbuilder just smiled.
“Let’s go in first.”
I walked towards the women standing in the distance.
